Nice a new hotel with professional staff and high standards services and very clean at the moment. Little be problem with parking - to small for the size of hotel and you can’t reserve spot for you, so you never know if you will be happy and get spot, but if not there’s opposite big parking several level with very reasonable prices and collaboration with hotel.

I was very impressed by the standard if accommodation we received. Very good value with breakfast included. Convenient location, very quiet, friendly staff… My only point for improvement is that a few towel rails would have been useful since there were four of us

Smaller studio hotel room but great service, staff and modern facilities. Parking was easy to organise on site, in an open area parking lot. Breakfast included , was basic but served buffet style, limited choices but baked beans were so tasty !!! Pool in the 8th floor is a lovely oasis away from the buzz. Gym is tiny but still available 24/7. Beds are comfy, shower has great pressure and able to control airflow in room, not too cold. Our room has general sound proofing on level 2.
